Ex-Niger Delta militant leader, Asari Dokubo has dropped a bombshell.

He said: “The military is at the centre of oil theft, and we have to make this very clear to the Nigerian public that 99 per cent of oil theft can be traced to the Nigerian military, the Army and the Navy especially.”

“I also want to say that oil theft is encouraged by the military.”

“The Army and the Navy intimidate the (Nigeria Security and) Civil Defence (Corps) who are by status the people who are supposed to guard these pipelines.”

“They receive a lot of money from NNPCL and the IOCs and just across the corner, you will see a houseboat.”

“The blackmail of the Nigerian state by the Nigerian military is shameful. They said they do not have enough armament and people listen to these false narratives.”

“So, this blackmail must end. They have enough resources to fight.”

Asari Dokubo made the shocking revelation when he visited President Bola Tinubu in Abuja on Friday, June 16th, 2023
